No oil will leak from the mount, it's a solid casting, the hole is a bolt hole.

The braces Sam is referring to work great!! I would highly recommend them even if you do replace the housing.. But like he said you don't even need the front mounts with these braces.. They stiffen the whole tractor... It's amazing the difference they make. I won't run another alum rear without them. It's something cub cadet should have done.

Either way... good luck with your project!!
